Jack and Jill as it teaches us that people will do anything to save themselves and be brave but red riding hood for example has no real meaning behind it except don’t be too confident
A short story I once read was "A Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe. The story is told from first person but the way it's written makes it feel like your reading someone else's twisted diary. But the main character has no name and the only other characters are referred to as "The old man" and "The Three officers" but despite that the way they describe the story from this mad mans point of view you can't help but be drawn in. The writing style was as though the man writing had a point to prove, because at the beginning he was insisting he wasn't crazy. So this story is him writing about the crime he committed to prove in a twisted way that he isn't crazy because in his words " A madman cannot plan." But the message of the story was what really hooked me in. At the end when the three officers are in the house as he is talking to them he hears a noise coming from the floor boards where he hid the body. Turns out what he hears is the mans heart beating louder and louder until he snaps and tells the police that he killed the old man. The best part is that it was only the mad man that heard the beating. I believe the message behind this story is that a guilty conscious is the loudest silence of all.
These lines are an example of enjambment. We can tell this because the sentence does not end with the line of poetry but instead carries over to the next lines.
This is not example of a metaphor because the comparison uses the word "like." This selection, then, illustrates both enjambment and simile.
